Description: View of Beaverton 1950's. Historical images of Beaverton, Oregon. This view is looking northwest (from approximately above 11th or 12th & Alger) towards downtown. St. Cecilia Catholic Church is visible at the north end of the large open lot in the lower left quandrant of the frame. The two north–south streets that go out of frame at the bottom of the photo are Franklin Street (left) and Lombard Street (now Lombard Avenue). The east-west arterial street in the upper part of the frame is Highway 8 (Canyon Road), with Highway 10 (Farmington Road) just below it and almost parallel. The large, light-colored building near the left end of the frame is Beaverton High School. The runways of the former Bernard's Airport can just be discerned in the upper right quandrant of the photo.
